papazoid Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 it's so nice to NOT be a part of this conversation anymore. According to Sam Farmer of the Los Angeles Times, the news that seemed inevitable is out Kroenke plans to build an NFL stadium in Inglewood, near the site of the old Hollywood Park race track. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/01/05/rams-owner-ready-to-build-an-nfl-stadium-in-l-a/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filthymcnasty08 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Any LA Bills fans here? I would love to hear what that will do to the traffic on the 405 and how excited you would be to drive up/down to Inglewood to see a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dhg Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 From the article: "But it appears Kroenke is ready to put a shovel in the ground and take them back to their roots." Guess the author doesn't realize their roots are in Cleveland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wing Man Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 If the Rams owner thinks that LA is going to magically warm to his continually mediocre team, he's nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to hear what that will do to the traffic on the 405 and how excited you would be to drive up/down to Inglewood to see a game. Better to say "are there any Bills fans from LA?"

KD in CA Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Rams fans can't be happy today. L.A. Rams fans might be. Better to say "are there any Bills fans from LA?"

May Day 10 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 sounds like some serious posturing for a deal with St Louis at this point. I hope Pegula takes into account the short shelf-life of some of these stadiums when planning the new Buffalo stadium. Need something built to last and upgradeable. IMO the Rams belong in Los Angeles. Still kind of awkward in St Louis for me. If St Louis does lose the team, Im sure they will be given the opportunity to provide a stadium for expansion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deranged Rhino Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Any LA Bills fans here? I would love to hear what that will do to the traffic on the 405 and how excited you would be to drive up/down to Inglewood to see a game. I live close-ish (in LA terms) and I'd be excited. I can double dip with some poker at Hollywood Park and football for a nightcap, wouldn't be too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. WEO Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 This is no surprise. He's been the only vialble owner who would move the a team and has the means to build a stadium. He bought all that land last year, so this was inevitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pondslider Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 So he wants the city to pay for his St. Louis stadium or he's going to build a new one in LA? Who is paying for that one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. WEO Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 So he wants the city to pay for his St. Louis stadium or he's going to build a new one in LA? Who is paying for that one? There will be no publicly funded LA stadium. If he can get St. Louis to build one, he's rather not pay for one. If he's paying, he's moving.

Deranged Rhino Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 While not an unexpected move, the Rams are moving to a year-to-year lease with the city. http://news.yahoo.com/rams-notify-st-louis-theyll-dome-lease-220731344--spt.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
